Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 packs Instant ramen noodles (or fresh noodles)
- 4 cups Chicken, vegetable, or mushroom stock
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced or grated
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned or thinly sliced
- 4 pieces Shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 2 heads Baby bok choy, halved
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 2 large Eggs (optional, for soft boiling)
- 1 teaspoon Chili oil or sriracha (optional, for serving)
- 2 pieces Lime wedges (optional)
Instructions
Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. If using eggs, gently add them to the water and boil for 6-7 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. Remove and transfer to an ice bath to cool, then peel and set aside.
In a separate large pot, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Pour in the chicken, vegetable, or mushroom stock and bring to a simmer. Stir in soy sauce.
Add julienned carrots and shiitake mushrooms to the simmering broth. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
Toss in the baby bok choy and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes until just tender.
Meanwhile, cook the instant ramen or fresh noodles according to package directions in a separate pot. Drain and divide the noodles into serving bowls.
Ladle the hot soup with vegetables over the noodles in each bowl.
Top each bowl with sliced green onions, halved soft-boiled eggs, and a drizzle of chili oil or sriracha for extra heat, if desired.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for a fresh citrusy twist.
